...game remained 6-0 until early in the fourth period when Eliot scored on a 15-yard screen pass from Alexander to senior Dick M?ny. Kirkland scored later in the quarter on a quarterback sneak by senior Peter Bernhard. The score was set up by a 40-yard end run by junior Delray Maughan...
...progression from Mao to East, the latter film is the most violent in the Group's attempts to structure through sound our apprehension of visual meaning. At one point the screen shows us a green field, and the narrator screams, "Red! Red! Red!" Earlier, a four-minute shot of a nineteenth-century couple obscured by tall grass is described in eight different periods, and peopled by eight different historical figures.

...Stone, WUSA is a wayward attempt to chart the depredations of right-wing forces in America. The film, produced by Newman, patently reflects the political views held by him and his wife Joanne. Their social awareness is admirable, but it has led their moviemaking astray. As two of the screen's most talented artists, they could have brought strength to Stone's closely stitched characters. Instead, personality and plot are overridden by politics...
